If that fixes the problem, we could install it.

I tried this out and it does fix the issue for me. BTW, have you tried to replicate the issue yourself?


There's nothing wrong with solving this one problem at a time, right?
Especially since we don't seem to have complaints about other
sequences.
 
I suppose so, I'm just a little wary of fixing like this without understanding why it only seems to be an issue now or whether other guards are needed. For example, the commit log for this area shows Dan Nicolaescu adding more bindings in c0658ad46e4928ecdf6a14904073dc8a2fcfe862 and also bumping the xterm version number that is checked against, so he is probably knowledgeable about how this works. (I've tried to add him to the CC list using the email address in that commit)

Cheers,
Len.
